This is a question Awesome Sickies

A colleague has been off work for two weeks now - apparently he's got something they can't diagnose, (although they know for sure it's not Legionnaires, Malaria, BSE or AIDS, he's supposedly in isolation). We are all sure he's merely sitting in the sun waiting for the World Cup to come on the telly.

What have you invented to get off work?

The easiet way...
To pull convincing sickies is, in the interview of a job or at the "Well done you're in" meeting, state that you have a hereditary illness.

I have a blood condition I live with, nothing serious as long as I look after myself decently, eat decent food and don't let myself go totally.

It's called "Familial Hyper-Lipadopia". When telling employers this you just say you may not feel too good and needs a day here or there.

Very few places ask for proof and never question it if you're careful.

Moderation, my life in a word.

However I did phone my bosses answer machine whilst very pissed to leave a sick message while the 2 ladies I was chatting with were singing Burt Bacharach’s "I love you baby" loudly and badly in the background... I got a caution for that one... Gotta love the games industry :)

Length, you love it you minx...
